The <br />Park and Recreation Commission established the Lawful Gambling Funds Improvement Program <br />which encourages the continued development and enhancement of City parks and trails through <br />cost sharing and volunteering. Matching funds are programmed from lawful gambling proceeds. <br />The program was utilized during 1993 and 1995, but drew no applications for 1994 and 1996, <br />however, the Park and Recreation Commission has approved two projects under the 1997 <br />program. Ms. Hart added that the City has already received notice of applications for the 1998 <br />program.
